From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I'd say it depends on what you do and how much collaboration with other people is involved. I have always used standalone clients, and I'm not a fan anything web browser based (or cloud in general). I started using LibreCalc instead of Excel for my job a few months ago. Now that I got used to it, I love it. It loads faster, has regex out of the box. Excel has already become quite enshittified, in my opinion.
What you both said are true. It's convenient to load a site and perform tasks to a degree what native clients can, and it's also weird how since more than a decade ago we can't agree on anything and now we are trying to do everything in a web client.
Interesting insight, thanks.
